About this event
The Indian Association of Thailand and the Thai India Trade and Tourism Association, with the Tourism Authority of Thailand, the Embassy of India and the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration, run the Grand Diwali Festival through November 2026. The published Bangkok programme runs in four parts: The First Light at Central Bangrak on 3 to 4 November, Lotus on the Water at ICONSIAM River Park on 6 to 8 November, Along the Old Canal on Phahurat Road and Khlong Ong Ang on 20 to 24 November, and Music on the Avenue at EmQuartier on 26 to 29 November, with puja ceremonies, diya lighting, Bollywood performance, Indian food stalls and festive markets, all free to enter. Diwali day itself falls on Sunday 8 November 2026. The dates and venues were announced by the organisers with the Tourism Authority of Thailand at the festival launch in late October 2026 and carried in the trade press schedule. This record is marked expected because the Tourism Authority of Thailand had not yet published a programme page of its own when checked; it flips to official when that page appears.
